Acrylic blackout grids & skirt on (Amphinidiums)

[Micro-Reefs Aquarium]

Been fighting Amphidinium for 4 weeks. Created an acrylic blackout grids and skirt to commence a 30 day blackout on just the dinos.
All corals and fish will be unaffected by the blackout.

My hope is that the grids will grow cyano and diatoms turning my tank around.

I will keep you all updated as I ordered and upgraded my microscope, I really want to take samples and share my success or failure with the simple to use acrylic blackout grids.

I have the two short videos so you can see where i placed the grids and skirt.

Any comments please?

Here is the baseline of what is under the acrylic black out grids and skirt. Amphinidiums all over my sand bed!
